St Francis Having lost a few feathers with age I understand a little more now Why he preached to birds. To the glass-eyed eagle he Would say Imperious friend, Come down a while And see the world For what it is, And to the oh so busy wren, Look up, Oh little one And see the world As It might be.

My thanks again to our hosts @thebrokenspine.co.uk for this week hosting #PoemsAbout #Rot here's one from its inspired by an extraordinary Shropshire landscape love to see what other poets do with the theme

Whixall Woman

On finding her below
The sphagnum moss
He brought her up
From the ancient deep
He carried her from her mortal bed.
To his cottage in the wood,
lit a fire to warm and dry her.
And asked her, if she could
Love a simple country lad,
Who longed to have a wife.
She said she already loved him,
But up here she couldn’t live his life.
So, he took her by the hand,
Her beauty still in tact,
No telltale sign of decay
But neither was there time
Now to dally and delay.
As he led her back down into the fen
Where he and his beloved
Could forego this world of men.

Is he doing that thing when you have to walk along a straight line to prove your sobriety. I'am reminded that Gandhi when asked what he thought about Western Civilization? replied, he thought it would be a jolly good thing

First Love Eager in the hand fast, Beneath the ready light And above the regal sea Within the half closed Palm of a sand dune They sat silent Between each kiss, Neither wishing To break the spell. © Bernard Pearson
